The tour was enjoyable and Bin was a wonderful guide, very polite, knowledgeable, and informative. The private tour is a great option. The car was clean and comfortable. We really enjoyed the day trip and lunch in the local village delicious. Thank you Bin for a great experience.
Hannah, was a great guide. We had an amazing day trip to the Mekong Delta. The farm where we chose our own coconut, honey tea was amazing, the lunch place had activities that kept our kids busy
Loved this tour. Hannah is friendly, resourceful, and considerate. We had the best time learning from her about the history and the culture, while trying yummy food from the locals. Highly recommend!
Hannah was a great guide - gave deep explanations about the delta, boats, temple, and food. She even gave good advice on how to open a coconut.🥥 🥤 The fruits were delicious and the weather was perfect.
Great trip!!! This was our second private day trip with Jen and well worth. She’s well informed and very knowledgeable about her beautiful country. Transportation was cool and comfortable, the lunch was traditional - Mekong was fascinating and alligator feeding was unexpected!! Loved it!
The tour was perfect for my boss, my 4-year-old son, and me. We were so lucky to have Bunny as our guide. She was engaging, knowledgeable, caring, and fun to be with. She knew a lot about the Mekong Delta and the surrounding areas, and shared many interesting stories and insights throughout the tour. We especially appreciated that she chose islands that were not too crowded and adjusted the pace of the tour to fit our group, including my young son. Thanks to her thoughtfulness, we were able to enjoy a relaxed and memorable experience. If you are thinking of doing the Mekong Delta trip, try and get Bunny as your guide. She is great.
We had the pleasure of having the same guide, Xem, for both the Cu Chi Tunnels tour and the Mekong Delta tour on two separate days, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. He was incredibly knowledgeable and answered every single question we had with patience and detail. Whenever we showed interest in something, he made sure we could experience it properly without ever making us feel rushed or pressured. What we appreciated most was how flexible and attentive he was. If a place was crowded, he would adjust the timing or wait so we could enjoy it more comfortably. He always gave us enough free time while still being very organized throughout the tours. We also want to mention our driver, who was excellent as well. He was very knowledgeable about the streets and routes, making every transfer smooth and comfortable, and he was always very kind and friendly. Both days felt relaxed, personal, and very well planned thanks to them. We truly learned a lot and enjoyed every moment. Highly recommended!
We had the luck to get Xem as our tour guide again (we did the Cu Chi tunnel with him) and was great again. He comes fome the mekong delta, knows everything and everybody around. It was great. Our driver was also very good
We had great time on Mekong river with Xueng. She was polite, friendly and very knowledgeable about life along the Mekong delta.
Emily was an amazing tour guide and did a lovely job explaining the history and significance of the places we visited. We had an excellent trip and would highly recommend this tour!
